Wildflowers.

A good amount of people seem to believe that Gwaine and I are, er... your boyfriends.

Good God. What DID you say while you were at the tavern, Merlin?

arthurpendragon-

What.

I wasn’t at the tavern! And I haven’t said anything. I have no clue where these people are getting their ideas from.

I’ve barely been able to rest all week.

-merlin:

I’m so tired.

OOC: Really though, for the last five days I haven’t been allowed to sit down and be happy. Torture.

Hopefully that’ll teach you not to run off again.

OOC: Aww, darlin’, what’s up?

princess-elena reblogged this from you and added:
OOC: Why? :/ -hugs-

Yeah, that’ll do it I think. Can I go sleep now?

OOC: We’re throwing some huge party in a couple of weeks and it needs an insane amount of arranging and cleaning and shopping and blergh. I’ve been put to work.

Merlin! You're back! Good thing too, Gaius had me picking herbs and mixing potions all over the place only half the time I was too hungover to tell the difference between fenugreek and a daffodil and the rest of the time I was too drunk to show up for work... I think he'll be pleased to have you back!

By the way did I hear rightly that you spent the other day in the tavern? Good man!

Sorry for not welcoming you back sooner, I was catching up on my sleep in the forge!

Have you ever thought about dropping all that drinking? I don’t think it’s good for your health to drink that much. Not to mention the trouble you get in every time you anger someone while drunk.

And no, I wasn’t in the tavern. I had… other things to do.

It’s alright. Elyan told me. I also heard that you and Lancelot will have to leave Camelot again now because I’ve returned. Is it true? I’d like to see you before you’re forced to go.

I have other duties to attend to! I can't sit around cleaning all day! I've got a kingdom to run!
Gee, I don't know, Merlin. But you sure aren't making things easier for yourself.

arthurpendragon-

Alright, alright, calm down.

I’ll just start with the regular things and shut my mouth.

That "other" servant enjoyed the cider far too much.

arthurpendragon-

You really are helpless without a decent servant.

So, is it just the regular chores that need to be done, or them and a load of ridiculously difficult tasks that you thought up just to make me suffer?

You've got more chores than you can count, so I'd suggest starting on them.

arthurpendragon-

Didn’t you have some other servant to take care of my duties while I was gone?

Merlin!
Where in the world have you been?
You're lucky I haven't had you thrown in the stocks!

arthurpendragon-

Eh, I was just.. out there. My reasons or excuses probably won’t matter. Nice to see you again too.

That's a good point!
Word of advice? NEVER get Lancelot drunk. And make sure he's never drunk in the same room as Gwaine when he's drunk. Just don't. Ever.

elyan-

I shall keep this in mind. Not that I ever try to get people drunk.

I never got to thank you for helping Gwen and I a few weeks back with Cenrid and everything. So thank you.
I'd invite you down to the forge, but Gwaine is currently there and he's drunk and asleep, so I think it's best to leave him be...
Thanks. Again. For everything.

elyan-

When is Gwaine not drunk?

It was the least I could do. It’s what friends are for, eh?
